The University of Belgrade is still in upheaval.

Just days after their 24-hour blockade of a major traffic intersection in the Serbian capital, students at the university have begun their latest protest: an 80-kilometer (50-mile) walk to Novi Sad.

Once they arrive in the country's second-largest city, they will join forces with the students from the local university and take part in a massive protest in memory of the 15 people who were killed when the canopy at the entrance to the city's station collapsed exactly three months ago, at 11:52 a.m. on November 1.

At least 400 students will be making the two-day march to Novi Sad in northern Serbia.

One of the students taking part is Petar Gardovic, who is studying at the Faculty of Political Sciences at the University of Belgrade. Gardovic told DW that he was not at all apprehensive. In fact, he said, he was certain that it wouldn't be too taxing to walk 40 kilometers a day for two days, especially given the motivation behind the march.

"All we are asking for is something that should be a matter of course in every normal state: that anyone who beats somebody up — and anyone who kills — should be held accountable for their actions; that those who are responsible are named and that everyone must bear the consequences of their actions or transgressions," he said.

The march will be escorted by people in vehicles supplying the students with food, water and medicine.

The students intend to walk during the day and spend the night outdoors at the football stadium in the town of Indjija, which is about halfway between Belgrade and Novi Sad.
